Commencement
December 18, 1999
The commencement ceremony is an important occasion not only for you but for other
graduates, families, and friends. Although it is a happy time, it should not be a time of
revelry. Your conduct at the ceremony should be dignified. Alcoholic beverages may not
be brought into the SIU Arena either by degree candidates or guests. Security personnel
will be on hand to deal with alcohol or other distracting objects.
Professional photographers will be taking two photographs of each graduate as he or she
crosses the stage. Each graduate will receive a proof print of each of those shots at no
charge, and will have the opportunity to purchase additional copies or various
photograph packages at a reasonable cost.
Southern Illinois University Carbondale
When its doors were first opened in 1 874, Southern Illinois University Carbondale was a
place where teachers and scholars believed that their graduates should be prepared to
make useful contributions to the health and strength of society. This is still our intention.
Outstanding departments, dedicated faculty, thorough and often inspired instruction, and
a thoughtful blending of old wisdom with new knowledge have become the hallmarks of
the University.
Because this is true, we can point with pride to our alumni, many of whom are distin-
guished scholars, business leaders, artists, and public servants, and many more of whom
are essential to organizations and communities throughout the nation.
Knowing that classroom learning is only one facet of education, we help students
learn to play through intramural sports, training in crafts, outdoor activities for individu-
als and groups, a variety of musical organizations; learn to help themselves through
wellness education, physical fitness training, and counseling; learn to help others through
fraternal, community service, political, and volunteer groups; learn to see and know their
surroundings through hands-on projects, field trips, lectures, and excursions of their own.
In encouraging students to explore the avenues and byways of knowledge and experi-
ence, our aim is to expand their view of the world in such a way that, while they focus on
the particulars of their careers, they will be able to see their lives and their work in the
broad context of the communities and the world.

Honorary Degree
Doctor of Humane Letters
Eugene M. Lang
Eugene M. Lang of New York City received a B.A. degree in 1938 from Swarthmore
College, and a M.S. degree from Columbia University in 1940. In addition, he studied
mechanical engineering at the Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute.
Mr. Lang founded REFAC Technology Development Corporation in 1952. REFAC, a
public company (AMEX), is the world's largest single organization specializing in the
negotiation and administration of international manufacturing licenses and joint ventures.
In 1963, REFAC became the first professional service company to receive from John F.
Kennedy the President's "E" Citation for trade expansion services to small U.S. manu-
facturers. Furthermore, he has been Chairman or Director of many U.S. and foreign
companies: including, Scriptomatic, Inc., a Philadelphia manufacturer of office equip-
ment; Electronic Research Associates, Inc, a Connecticut manufacturer of electronic
switches and keyboards; Three-Five Systems, Inc., a Tempe (AZ) manufacturer of elec-
tronic components and display modules; Alexander's Inc., a New York department store
chain; and Gough Econ Inc., a Charlotte (NC) manufacturer of materials handling
equipment.
In 1996, Mr. Lang received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest
civilian award. He is internationally recognized as an expert in creating industrial proj-
ects and new technology ventures and has been policy consultant to the U.S. and foreign
governments and to multi-national companies. Other notable activities have included
lecturing at universities and before business organizations in many countries. Mr. Lang
has written articles on management techniques, business economics, international
licensing and technology transfer that have been published by leading journals in the
United States and abroad.
Since 1956, Mr. Lang has been an advisor to the U.S. Dept. of Commerce and has
served on various study and policy commissions of the U.S. Dept. of State and Small
Business Administration. He also has served on official U.S. Trade and Investment
Missions to France, India, Japan, Burma, Philippines, Australia and New Zealand.
Mr. Lang has served many educational, social service and civic organizations. Those
include serving as: Chairman Emeritus of the Board of Swarthmore College, A Trustee
and Vice Chairman of the New School University, founder and Chairman Emeritus of the
Conference of Board Chairmen of small independent liberal arts colleges, on the Board
of Overseers of the Columbia University Graduate School of Business, on the Advisory
Council of Carnegie Mellon Graduate School of Industrial Administration, a Trustee of
the Marines College of Music, and a Trustee of the Center for Defense Information.
Mr. Lang's philanthropic endeavors include: the establishment of the Eugene M. Lang
Foundation; principal donor of the Eugene M. & Theresa Lang Music Building and the
Eugene J. & Theresa Lang Performing Arts Center at Swarthmore College; the Theresa
Lang Student Center at the New School for Social Research; and the Theresa and Eugene
M. Lang Health Education Center of the New York Hospital. Lang is the founder of the
" I Have A Dream" ® education programs and Chairman Emeritus of the national " I
Have A Dream"® foundation. He has established many scholarships, professorships,
student and faculty fellowships at various colleges and universities.
Also in his receipt are numerous awards and citations for his business and public
service accomplishments. Most recently, Lang received the Presidential Medal of
Freedom (1996), the Jefferson Award (1997), and TBS's Trumpet Humanitarian Award
(1998). Further, Mr. Lang has received honorary degrees from Swarthmore College,
Bank Street College, College of New Rochelle, New School for Social Research, St.
Paul's College, University of the State of New York, Columbia University, Trinity
College, St. Michael's College, Rhode Island College, City University of New York,
Springfield College, Yale University, Hobart and William Smith Colleges, Hunter
College, Glassboro State College, Bard College, Lawrence University, University of
Missouri, Whitman College, Goucher College, and Marymount Manhattan College.
In recognition of his contributions, outstanding achievements, service, and distin-
guished leadership record, Southern Illinois University Carbondale finds it fitting and
proper to present the honorary degree of Doctor of Humane Letters to Eugene M. Lang.

Academic Regalia
The academic regalia, consisting of cap, gown, and hood, originated about the twelfth
century and was worn primarily for warmth. Later, the material of the gown and lining
and shape of the hood represented the economic and social as well as the academic status
of the wearer.
In 1895, a commission of American educators established an inter-collegiate code for
the academic regalia. This code, revised in 1932, 1969 and again in 1989, provides a
comprehensive system of academic regalia for American colleges and universities. While
the code specifies black gowns, foreign universities and a growing number of American
universities have gowns of various colors.
There are four types of gowns and hoods — the associate's, bachelor's, master's, and
doctor's. The associate and bachelor's gowns are the same except for a slight difference
in color, untrimmed and have a closed front and long pointed sleeves. Women may wear
a white collar with the bachelor's gown when no hood is worn.
The master's gown is untrimmed, may be worn open or closed, and has extremely
long, closed sleeves with an opening at the wrist. The ends of the sleeves are square with
an arc extending from the wrist opening to the square end. The doctor's gown may be
worn open or closed and has round, bell-shaped sleeves. There are wide velvet borders
down the front and three velvet bars on each sleeve; the borders and bars may be black or
the color of the discipline of the degree.
The hood for each degree has a distinctive form. The master's hood is three and one-
half feet in length with wider velvet edging and more of the lining exposed. The doctor's
hood is four feet in length with the widest velvet edging and full exposure of the lining.
Hoods are lined with the color(s) of the college or university conferring the degree. The
color of the velvet edging identifies the discipline of the degree.
The black mortarboard cap is standard in the United States, although soft tarns are
worn at some universities. Tassels are usually black, except when no hood is worn, in
which case the color of the tassel represents the field of study. Doctor's caps may have
gold tassels. Upon conferral of the degree the tassel is worn on the left of the cap. Caps
are considered part of the academic regalia and are customarily removed only during
prayer, oath, or pledge, and then by men only.
33
Colors of Tassels and Hoods
In the United States the hood is edged with the color of the field of study and lined with
the colors of the university conferring the degree. Southern Illinois University
Carbondale's hoods are lined in maroon with a white chevron. Tassel and/or velvet hood
colors, representing the fields of study, worn by students and faculty in the academic
processional are:
